I'd suggest you check Mary Maxim and Annie's Attic. Both have websites now, and both have a fine selection of this kind of pattern. Though they both have many similar items, they each also have some things that the other doesn't have.
I have a friend who wants me to make her a birth announcement from a pattern I have. The problem is that it is for a white baby and she wants the baby in the announcement to have a darker skin tone. I would rather have a pattern of some sort to do this than guess what would work. Any ideas? Thanks.
since you already Have the pattern, all you really need is to choose shades that are darker & complement each other. eg. if the present skin tones are in pinks/beige [i'm not very good at Naming colors ;-/] & there are 4 shades, then choose 4 shades of browns that will have the same degree of difference [between themselves] as the former.
Or, you could start with the 'darkest' of the 4 pinks - use this as the starting point or as the lightest shade of the new dark tones. then choose the rest of the 3 shades in darkening tones, following the same principle.
also, take the pattern And the cloth to the shop while buying the skeins. place the skeins on the cloth & it will help you decide whether the colors will go well with the cloth And the entire pattern.
i do this often since, even when i'm using a book pattern, i don't get the same brand as recommended. hence i have to improvise a lot. but it all comes together in the end.
don't be afraid to try out something new - you'll feel even More satisfied & happy with your work when it's finished :-))
hope this helps
all the very best & have fun :-))
ADDITION : if you have a photograph or picture of a dark baby, i can convert it into a cross-stitch pattern for you.

Needle Caboodle: A not so cross-stitch entry!
Another birthday approaching. A friend's daughter is turning 2 in November, and i had thoughtof stitching for her Spring Butterfly Baby by EMS . My friend told me her daughter's bedroom decors are butterflies, so I think I would stitch her that and put her b-day and stuff, like a birth announcement. Thought of doing the first version which is Butterfly Baby, but not so fond of how she look like. I think I like the spring one better. Will need to gather the materials first! *^_^* Currently very busy with life, loves to spend time with my precious baby boy. Adores the color black. Worships the ground that hubby walks on :รพ Cross stitch is my passion. To be a great mother and a super wife is my...
